I'm using Catalyst 8.12 on a Thinkpad T60, Linux 2.6.28.1.
I've been running Xorg 7.2 and everything has been playing
nicely. Today I updated to Xorg 7.4 and reinstalled Catalyst,
and now I'm seeing a few nasties, viz.,
* Artifacts in the form of narrow vertical black lines in
e.g. xterm and Nedit. These go away if I force a redraw
(shade and unshade the window).
* Crappy GL performance. For example with glxgears (and
also the GL xscreensaver modules). I get a high frame rate
OK, but it's like there are diagonal black bands passing
through the image.
Any ideas on whether this sort of thing can be fixed by
tweaking xorg.conf? My fglrx entry is pretty much vanilla.
